DB version for IWP use

I would like to use IWP only for viewing and finding records - not for creating/modifying records.

As some graphics and scripts in the database are not compatible with IWP, I would have to change all of them which would affect the database used in FMPRO application.

I wonder what the best approach would be? Create another copy of the database, change the graphics, scripts and convert it to IWP and use that?

Using this approach would mean, that if records are created/modified in the master copy of the database - they would have to be imported into the IWP version of the database.

I would appreciate your input. Obviously, I do not want to use CWP as I have no experience in that.

Thank you.
